something in the air smells like chopping my hair off in my bathroom 👀 it’s that time of year where we up my meds 😅

Pretty much, it helps with seasonal depression

and if you haven’t heard of them, they’re basically super bright lamps that simulate sunlight and can help with winter depression and keeping a consistent circadian rhythm when it’s pitch black at 3 pm

someone just asked if I’ve heard of happy lights… babe I’m bipolar and from Alaska. have I heard about happy lights, they’re reason I survived high school

No one talk to me, I’m having a moment yet again with this absolute ELITE track run

I’m finally reading crescent city for the first time after having read TOG and ACOTAR twice each and oh my god the fucking lavender soap. Sarah J Maas when I find you…

Absolutely. This was the absolute darkest point in my life and it’s really fucking with me to think about it again.

And we now have the first March Friday the 13th since then… Please please let it close the loop 🤞

No genuinely, I kept waking up CONSTANTLY and the few times I did sleep, I had real fucked up dreams

Thinking about the collective trauma we all faced and how this was somehow SIX years ago?? Friday the 13th in March 2020 was the last “normal” day I had for a very long time…

thinking thoughts…

I swear I last looked at the clock 3 hours ago and it’s been 10 minutes. I hate this job.

Shawn Mendes for me. I’m SHOCKED that Stitches wasn’t number one

Hannah Montana, Lemonade Mouth, and Tangled alongside Eminem, Bon Jovi, and Watsky, alongside Switchfoot, Hamilton and somehow Jim Gaffigan?? We were not okay

Everyone nostalgic for 2016 but this was the absolute roller coaster of a year I had at 19 years old. Let’s maybe not go back there 😅

is this just me being irresponsible with money or is it a service industry thing to just have stashes of cash around? it’s like when I get home from work, I’ll just leave my tips in random places and then months later be like “hey cool, 20 bucks” lmao

“psst! [student] ate his boogers! pass it on!”

they’re ALL writing 6 7 and 21 in the window condensation

I’m trapped on a bus with 60 third graders send help

the husband’s bored on the night shift so we’re doing a newspaper crossword “together” from pictures he’s sent me 😂

getting a song stuck in your head but it’s only one lyric… I’ve had “youuu arreee the only exception. youuu arreee the only exception. youuu arreee-” on a loop for about 10 hours now 🤪

litigated? that’s a big word for elmo

my repeat song for a minute was say don’t go. and I will forever be bumping the lakes (original version) full blast

Ross Geller was 27.
Jess Day was 29.
Meredith Grey was 29.
The Lannisters were in their 30s.
Jerry Seinfeld was 35.
Michael Scott was 40.

I’m only in season 1.

Anyone with an opposite schedule partner? I’m a teacher (7:45-3:45) and my husband just got a job on the graveyard shift for the first time (10pm-6am). We’ll still see each other in the evenings but I hate sleeping alone. Tips? Commiserations? “It’ll be okay”s?

we have reached the point in the year that my 3rd graders think we’re friends. “build relationships” they said. yeah but then they message me on deledao instead of doing math

then there’s me with a reading teaching minor, having to read a YA book a WEEK on top of my LatAm literature class in 2017 🤪

I’m behind on stream vods but simsie finding Quinn more times in 213 tickets than Julian in 6 years of hunting is so funny

this makes me second guess the Maya Hawke lookalike barista at my favorite coffee shop. she has a giant moth tattoo and a nose ring but I guess who knows??

wait… is she not…
